Some amazing engineering and construction of the past:
Aqueducts
were built to bring a constant flow of water from distant sources into
cities and towns, supplying public baths, fountains and private
households. Many aqueducts over
land connect points of similar height in a landscape, usually by
bridging a river valley or other eroded opening in an otherwise flat
area. This list describes the old aqueducts that were built in the
period since the 1st century (Roman times) till the 19th century.
